There are several methods how to try to open a corrupted AutoCAD drawing file.
  • Use the Recover command
  • Open the file and press ESC key just before Regeneration/Error message, save to DXF, load, save as DWG, Audit
  • Insert the complaining DWG as a block into an empty drawing
  • Open/save the DWG in an older version of AutoCAD or AutoCAD LT or Actrix
  • In case solution wasn't effective, apply software for recover corrupt .dwg files DWG Repair Toolbox

Quite a number of fators can result in this. If it will not open, try opening the file by going to the application menu>Drawing Utilities>Recover... Otherwise, obtain further assistance on this here.

Perform the following steps if the file cannot be opened at all...

1.Open a blank DWG and run the RECOVER command. Select the problematic file. AutoCAD will attempt to recover the file and open it.

2.Open a blank DWG and run the RECOVERALL command. Select the problematic file. AutoCAD will attempt to recover the file and open it.

3.Open a blank DWG and run the INSERT command. Select the problematic file and see if it will insert. If it does, then run EXPLODE and select the inserted block. Run AUDIT and PURGE commands, and then use SAVEAS to create a new DWG.

4.Look in the same directory where the DWG resides and see if there is a BAK file of the same name. If so, rename the BAK extension to DWG and see if the file can then be opened.

5.Look in C:\Windows\Temp for files with an SV$ extension. If any exist with a similar name to the corrupted DWG file, then rename the extension to DWG and see if it can then be opened.

6.Go to your backup system and restore the file from a time before it became corrupted.
